Dr. A. S. Thomas.  An Outstanding Year for Novelties
Viscount Southwood: One of my two plants has grown well; the other has been poor and suggests a tendency to constitutional die-back. The petals are thin in texture but make up a well-formed bloom of a pleasing soft pink shaded with yellow and copper. Thin petaled roses are apt to ball in Melbourne but, so far, Viscount Southwood has opened well.
